Senior Lecturer and Chair, Arabic Language and Cultures, The University of Sydney, Australia; Distinguished Visiting Scholar, Advanced Research Collaborative, CUNY My research in the field of women's history focuses on the study of Egyptian feminism. My PhD thesis, titled *Nationalism, cosmopolitism and internationalism in the discourse of the Egyptian Feminist Union* (in Italian) analyses the origins of Egyptian Feminist and its relationships with the international suffragist movement between the First and the Second World War. I have published also on Arab women's autobiography, Arab women's political leadership, and contemporary Iraqi cinema.
